When I was growing up, I never could have imagined that I'd run for elected office one day – let alone become the first computer programmer and the first former synagogue president ever elected to the Senate. As the granddaughter of Jewish immigrants and the daughter of a World War II veteran, I was surrounded by loved ones who taught me the values of hard work, determination, and persistence – and I've carried these with me my entire life. I carried those values with me during my first-ever campaign for Congress in 2016, when I flipped a highly competitive district from red to blue, and in 2018, when I defeated a Republican incumbent against all odds – becoming the second woman senator in Nevada's history. To this day, those values of hard work, determination, and persistence fuel my fight to advocate for working families and bring much-needed progress to the lives of all Nevadans. But right now, experts at The Washington Post are calling me one of the most vulnerable senators up for reelection – and FiveThirtyEight says that Nevada could once again decide Senate control. The GOP will come after me with everything they've got, and I simply cannot fight back without your grassroots support. Thank you for taking the time to read my story – and for standing with me in the fight ahead.
